Silverlight GlyphMap Utility Repaired

Either folks are hesitant to write, or nobody is playing with the stuff on my site, because apparently my GlyphMap Utility has been broken since I got the OutlookBar code running

I was getting some links together for someone, and finally decided to jump into that code. I knew it was an interaction because if I tried to select a font, the OutlookBar went away.

Turns out I had "MainCanvas" defined in both... makes sense since all my V1.0 SL starts with the same XML. So I renamed the GlyphMap Utility canvas "GlyphMapMainCanvas", and uploaded new markup and JS.

That still didn't work, because I hadn't updated the XAML as well, and as soon as I did that, I could change fonts AND still have the OutlookBar working...

Now that's a relief :)
